Chicago Fire has once again been pushed from its usual Wednesday spot on NBC - and fans are not impressed.

Episode 13 of season nine has been pushed back to 5 May, as the networks will all be airing a presidential address kicking off at 9/8c.

However, the decision comes as the hit series' schedule - and those of it's spin-off shows Chicago PD and Chicago Med - has been shifted several times in the past few weeks.

Kelly and Stella were revealed to have met years prior at the training academy - when Kelly tried to woo her without realizing she was married - but when the firefighter joins Firehouse 51 they keep their past friendship a secret.

However, as time passes, they become good friends and Stella moves in with Kelly.

Over the seasons, their chemistry has become undeniable and as of season nine they are dating - with fans expecting a possible engagement sooner rather than later.
